You just read the best one in the series. All downhill from here.
I've read almost everything King has written. And sadly, Roaad is right. The first book held so much promise. The subsequent books have moments of awesome, and lots of filler, strange plot turns, and missed opportunities. King wrote these over decades, and it shows.
And that ending. frick that fricking ending.

I actually thought it was perfect.
But I'd slogged through a lot of stupid crap in the last few books in order to reach that ending. Honestly I was more than ready for the series to end by that point. At its best it was one of the best works of fantasy I've ever read so I was determined to reach the finish.
Probably the thing that I hated most was one of the characters he inserts in the last few books. Just unforgivable. Robert Heinlein did something similar towards the end of his career and I hated it then too.
